A cool Gary Sanchez from a cool blogger

I’ve made no secrets about the fact that Gary Sanchez is one of my favorite Yankee prospects. He’ll play high A ball in 2012 with a chance to move up to AA. Not bad for a kid who is still a teenager.

Ryan from This Card is Cool ripped some 2011 Obak and pulled this Gary Sanchez. I inquired and we worked out a trade. Definitely a nice addition to my Gary Sanchez collection, which now stands at a whopping six cards.

Trade Review: This Card is Cool

A few weeks ago, I contacted Ryan G over at This Card Is Cool about setting up a possible trade. I figured I'd have a bunch of cards on Ryan's want lists, especially his Super Collection. I pulled a bunch of cards I had that I figured Ryan might need...and as it turns out, he didn't need many of them! That's a true testament to Ryan, who is is trying to collect a card of every set ever produced. No small task. The fact that he is 17% there is pretty amazing.

I did manage to find a handful of cards he needed, including a relic and an autographed card of Randy Velarde, which I had a spare from a past TTM success. Ryan sent me a 2008 A&G Melky Cabrera relic and a handful of other Yanks, including some 2011 Topps Attax and a sweet Munson National Chicle.

Thanks for the trade, Ryan!
